India reaffirms commitment to make efforts for ‘revitalisation’ of UNGA

India emphasised the need for the ‘revitalization’ of the United States General Assembly (UNGA), and reiterated its commitment to working with all member states in a constructive and forward-looking manner.

Speaking at the Thematic Debate under the purview of the Ad-Hoc Working Group on GA Revitalisation, India’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Parvathaneni Harish outlined key steps for its revitalisation and highlighted the General Assembly’s universal and intergovernmental nature.

“India has consistently held that the standing of the General Assembly in the UN is unparalleled. Its universality and intergovernmental nature make this congregation close to a Global Parliament. Sovereign equality and inclusivity are hallmarks of this assembly. We reiterate that it is important to respect its position as a primary policymaking and representative organ of the UN, both in letter and spirit,” he said. (BS)
